Sturdy ToiIers Of Montana Prove That
They Are Not Despsradoes.
The traffic managers of the Northern
Pacific road told me fine story charac-
teristic of those big-hearted miners.
Mr.. Davis had taken his aged father
and mother up into the heights of one
of the mountains that shadows Butte.
It was fifteen miles distant While
they were camping there snow-storm
swept upon them, and the sudden
change caused Mr.. Davis father 70 suf-
fer from an attack of paralysis. The
old gentleman was helpless and his
son was perplexed. He was fifteen
miles from civilization and had no con-
veyance to reach it. He happened to re-
member that not far away on the
mountain side was q camp Of miners.
He walked to the camp and found them
there just sitting down after their meal
to a game Of cards. He apologized for
intruding upon them and said: Boys.
/ am in trouble" The cards fell out
of their hands and they were on their
feet ready for his relief. He told them
his story. swell. stranger" said the
leader. well git the old man down
the mountain safe and sound; but
you'll have to git the old woman down
the best you can, cause, you know, We
amt ust to handlin' women, are We.
boys9" And at the mention Of q wom-
ans name the speakers hard hand
went up to his eyes. but in second he
recovered and said to Mr.. Davis: "You
lead the way and we'll foller."
They toiled up the mountain until
they came to the hut where the old peo-
pie were housed. At the sight of the
lady. the miners. seven of them. punched
themselves just as lot Of freight cars
that had come to a sudden halt. Every
hat was of. Having made their bows.
they gathered about the old man and
looked upon him, as they folded their
hands. as il he were dead. Then they
wrapped him in blankets and picked
him up. and gently wound round the
mountain, picking out the smooth
places. never saying word. MIR.
Davis followed with his mother. When
they reached the level and the old man
had been laid upon his bed Mr.. Davis
took the miners to one side and said:
"Men. here is a roll of bills-all 1 have.
Takeit, no matter how much it may be. "
The old miner who had done all the
talking for the crowd took off his
hat and spoke: "Why, we thought you
knowed u.s."

"But we thought you knowed US well.
No, stranger. put her up. Why, we
wouldn't let that old man suffer up
thar a minnit. Would we, boysP"
And they all raised their hats. Easy,
boys" said the speaker. And they
shouted, but it was soft and low shout
which brought tears to Davis eyes. "
